Episode 25
JunShan,
You're always on tenterhooks, thinking that I will look down on you.
But you didn't know,
No one is better than you.
I didn't tell you because I felt embarrassed,
and, even if I told you, you wouldn't have believed me.
I cannot keep lying to myself.
I can't treat Mao Mao as Ping'an any longer.
But,
I miss you all so much.
I know that you are missing me too,
I really, really miss you all.
But, don't worry,
Soon, I will be by your sides.
Just wait for me.
Ming Han,
Uncle, why did you come?
Grandmother made some food for you.
Eat it when it's still hot.
It smells so good!
How is Xiao Gu doing?
Her condition is quite stable now.
I'm here looking after her, so don't worry.
Looking at you is enough to give people a heartache.
You should look after yourself too, don't exhaust yourself.
Compared to those who died in battle,
my share is nothing, it's not worth mentioning.
Big Sister's condition is not so great.
Now, she doesn't even pay much attention to Ping'an.
if you have any time, go back and have a look.
Did she wake up?
Your aunt thinks that's the case.
If Xiangjun's mind is really clear now,
then she must not be able to accept Ping'an.
She shuts herself in her room all day, without eating or drinking.
Only with grandma watching her would she reluctantly eat a few mouthfuls.
Just to give the impression.
We are all worried to death.
Grandmother, you called me
Xiang Jun, come here, sit down.
Some members of the Gu family came.
They want to settle their marriage today at the hospital.
So this matter can be finally settled.
This is good news.
If Xiao Gu really went to the battlefield,
then Xiang Xiang would've had to wait a while.
The Gu family, is a very kind family.
We don't have decent dowry, but they are not fussy about it.
He's just determined to be with Xiang Xiang.
In the future,
I will no longer have to worry about Xiang Xiang.
Xiang Jun, Yes.
You are the oldest amongst the three children.
In the future you have to share more of the family responsibilities.
These are keys for the storeroom and basement.
Keep them safe with you,
also, I keep thinking all these years, I've not treated you well enough.
These are my dowry jewellery,
keep these safe also.
If these are any family problems in the future,
you can use these.
No, grandmother.
Grandmother, all these years it's me who had not been good enough to you.
Xiang Jun,
I've looked after so many children,
you are the one which I have to worry about the least.
Originally, you're mother couldn't get pregnant,
you are the female Buddha for which I begged for
from the Southern Mountain Temple.
Grandmother.
Good child.
Grandmother
Xue Er, have you seen Gu Qing Ming?
Gu Qing Ming? I haven't seen him.
Cousin, have you seen Gu Qing Ming?
Hu Xiao Man, what are you doing!? You almost scared me to death!
Hu Xiang Xiang, so you can act like this too!
What are you doing lying here? Get up now!
Marry me?
Xiang Xiang, I'll stop joking with you,
today is you're wedding day.
I'm actually feeling a bit reluctant,
Brother Gu, from now on you must look after Xiang Xiang.
You're injuries haven't healed yet, why are you running about?
Okay, I won't run about anymore,
and neither should you.
Henceforth, I will listen to you.
Sister-in-law,
it's been hard on you these few years.
Big sister.
Xiang XiangJin Feng
Congratulations!
Jin Feng
Congratulations!
Major General.
Xiang Xiang,
don't be annoyed that we kept it from you,
after Xiao Gu's injuries heal he must go back.
With the state your big sister's in now,
mother and grandmother are too afraid to leave the house.
So this is all very last minute.
By using this opportunity to complete your marriage,
both us families won't have to worry anymore.
Yes, I agree.
My father was thinking the same.
Father is old now, and his health is poor.
He's scared of not being able to see his son get married, and his future grandchildren.
We will not forget,
the kindness that you have shown us.
Ah, you speak too seriously,
you don't have to be so formal,
we will all be one family now.
Mr. Gu, future Mrs. Gu,
since we are in a hurry, I will be a witness to you marriage today.
After we send the Japanese packing,
I will definitely go to both family houses for a glass of congratulatory wine.
Very good, very good.
Then we are indebted to you.
Your welcome.
In-law, it's General Fang now.
I have not congratulate your promotion yet.
Don't be so formal -Congratulations.
Do you have anything to say to the bride?
Xiangxiang
Are you willing to marry me?
Good.
Miss Hu, do you have anything to say to him?
Bullets and bombs have no eyes.
I only wish for him to come back alive.
I will.
Here.
Brother.
Why are you here so early in the morning?
This was found under Xiangjun's pillow.
We usually give her one pill at the time.
We didn't know she would hid them all.
Granny and aunt are really worried.
So they told me to come and find you.
Xiangjun, Xiangjun
Granny -Xiangjun
What's wrong granny? -Minghan.
Xiangjun disappeared.
Do you know where she could have gone?
Are you planning on jumping from here?
Fine, I'll accompany you.
Cousin.
A few years ago when you married,
I circled around here everyday.
I was naive then.
I always believed that you could just throw everything away and come to find me.
Telling me to leave with you.
So many years passed
The choice is in your hands again.
If you are really willing to leave everyone behind and jump from here,
I'll leave with you.
Cousin.
In truth,
you don't have to be so good to me.
I am not the old Hu Xiangjun.
My last name is Xu now.
I know that we...
can't return to the past anymore.
But I still want to tell you
no matter what is your last name,
I will always be your family.
Since we're one family,
won't you talk to me properly,
why you must die.
Cousin.
You don't understand.
Junshan
and Ping'an
come to me every night.
I really miss them.
I miss them too much.
I really miss them.
I lost my parents as a child.
I can understand the pain of losing your family.
So I believed since young
for Xiuxiu
I must continue to live on.
When you are suffering because of your loss,
have you not thought if there is someone else who is suffering for you?
That is your mother.
If you really died like this,
Can granny and aunt really live on well?
Let's go, come back with me.
Maomao is waiting for you.
He already lost a mother, he can't lose you.
Xiangjun's heart is already dead.
I know.
I will watch over her carefully.
Helping her to overcome this.
Minghan.
I'm old.
I can watch her for awhile
but I can't watch over her whole life.
Granny, you don't have to say anything.
Xiangjun will always be my cousin.
Minghan.
I've been thinking if I can rest at home instead.
It's a mess at home right now.
It's because it is a mess that I want to go back.
Alright.
Then I leave the family to you.
You can relax.
Brother-in-law.
This cup of wine is to thank you as your sister-in-law.
You must drink it.
Brother Xu, we won.
We fended them off three times.
I'm not bragging.
Its a total annihilation of 50,000 or 60,000 enemy type of victory.
Did you know?
Since fighting at Songhu until today,
or, from battle of Jiawu until today,
We've never won so smoothly.
What I am trying to tell you is
I know how powerful our enemy is.
So that is why we enlisted.
We were the same.
I went to the battlefield not to die.
But to live.
For the life of the whole family.
For the life of the whole country.
Brother Xu. Really.
You don't have to, for the actions of those bastards,
to feel angry.
Because our descendants will know
at Changsha,
in the homeland of Xue Junshan,
we won a battle like never seen before.
This win is partly due to you.
I don't know how long this battle will last.
But I promise you,
as long as I am alive,
I will look after this family for you.
You can rest assured.
You can be in peace.
Brother-in-law, if you can hear us in heaven,
then please protect this family.
I see that these days, Brother Mo has been going in and out.
He looks like he is doing well.
He got promoted again.
He treated me yesterday when we went out drinking.
Now he seems to be earning 4 dayang per month.
It really is the sweet after the bitter.
Officer Gu.
look, I've been in Changsha for awhile,
because money has been tight, I had to impose on Brother Xue's family.
Now that Brother Xue is gone, I feel bad to keep on living here.
I am hoping to find something to do.
I'm wondering if you have anything I can do.
Do you still need another adjutant?
Being an adjutant with me is not profitable.
Not much to gain there.
What are you saying? What am I trying to gain with you?
I can't have anyone who have anything to do with gambling.
I'll quit, immediately.
Minghan.
Oh, granny.
Xiangjun, where are you guys going?
I heard from cousin that Anfu orphanage needs help. I want to go and help.
Alright. Maomao, are you going too?
I'm going too.
Granny, then we'll be leaving.
Qingming.
It's good enough, your wounds haven't healed yet.
Stop.
It's alright. Have you given the money to older sister?
Not yet. -Why not?
They can't take your money.
Don't treat me as an outsider.
With sister like this, it is only right we give more money.
I said the same but sister just wouldn't take it.
And she had to give me granny and her's jewellery
Xianxiang, how about this?
Give the money but don't say it is my pay.
Say that is yours. Say that I am very gluttonous and want to eat some beef.
How about that?
As expected of my husband. Genius.
Obviously.
Then I'll make some spicy beef and you can take it to brother Mo too.
Alright.
Come look at this. The fabric is good.
It is worth something. When you have time, take it to the pawn shop.
Go and see.
Mother, this is your best clothes.
Keep it, let's not touch it for now.
I still have some money and jewellery.
Don't hide it from me, you already pawned two coat.
and one of them was your dowry.
As for the jewelry, leave them for Xiuxiu
If Xiaoman continue to refuse,
I can't force her to be a daughter-in-law of the Hu family.
We have to let her be married off gloriously.
Grandchildren will have their own luck.
Please don't worry too much.
Granny, mom
This is my salary, $40.
$40! -Don't joke around
How could a factory worker earn $40?
Then I'll go roll cigars too.
Granny, haven't I learned abacus before?
I also help do the accounts. I basically did two people's jobs.
Really?
It's been hard work.
Good child, you've worked hard.
Granny, then I'm leaving.
Leaving, mom -Alright.
Brother Xiao Hei, let's go.
Leaving? Alright.
Xiaoman
When will you buy back the land deeds?
Now, older sister went to the orphanage.
Granny and aunt are looking after the house.
If they found out about it, you're dead.
Men need to do big things, so don't interfere.
Just use your stupid head to think what we are going to eat for dinner.
Right, I gave mom $40.
Tell her to buy back some Jiuruzhai five spice beef jerky.
Let's go.
Go.
We're here to see Mr. Wang
Thank you.
Mr.Wang
This is our payment for this month.
Seems like your factory is doing good.
You are actually repaying back 2 days early for this month.
This is due to your help.
It's also due to my foresight.
Despite that the factory is small and we don't have many people.
But we earn so fast.
If we do well next month, we can pay even faster.
Alright, play a few turns.
Buying.
Betting small.
Betting big.
Big. Small.
Small.
I won.
Brother Xiao Hei, let's go. Don't throw all your money here.
Hurry up, go.
Play tomorrow -Buying
Look, even if we are not in Xiangtan, I have my own factory.
Before, I had fortune by following the chief
Now that the chief is gone, people in Changsha is not taking me into consideration anymore.
Even the rice store shoo me away.
Why else would I think of starting a factory
and borrow money from the loan sharks?
Loan sharks? When did they become loan sharks?
Don't act so scared.
"Loan sharks" is just a name.
Mr.Wang asked for lower interest rates because of me.
You're a bachelor but our land deed is at stake.
Why are you so worried? Look at the business that we got for us.
We learned 240 dollars in just one month.
If it wasn't for the fact that you are the chief's family, would I go to you for such an opportunity?
Next month, it will be 480 dollars.
The month after...you calculate it.
In at most 3 months, we can get the deed back.
You got a factory for free.
It's just that you have to look after Xiuxiu more.
Don't be so cold, be more welcoming.
Make her happy so she doesn't spill the beans about stealing the deed.
Marry her soon. -Xiuxiu won't say anything.
If you won't marry her, I will. She won't say anything if I married her either.
Let me say this again.
Don't even think about it.
Work hard.
What did you do today?
Eat. Sleep. Think about you.
Me too.
What is it?
I know you have to leave immediately.
I want to give you a child.
So when you leave
I don't have to miss you.
Silly
I'm being serious.
Impossible, just a hundred dollars. Why so little?
It all here. Be happy that we still earned something.
But didn't you say before that rolling cigars is a easy business and there is a huge demand?
That's right. I did say that.
But times change. The situation at Changteng is tense.
Nothing will get shipped there.
If it wasn't that we were lucky and sent off this shipment fast,
it passed Hunan before the battle started and we got our principle back,
Or else, we would have gotten nothing.
But the contract for the land deed is expiring,
How will I get the deed back without money?
Loan sharks are ruthless, they will leave nothing for you.
If I've known this earlier, I should have asked back for the capital.
There is no medicine for regret.
It is as it is. There is no use complaining.
Don't I have a load of debt too?
who knew we would be so unlucky.
The war started again right when we started earning money.
Then what do we do?
If these tobacco plant is left here like this and become damp, we are still at a loss.
We have to find a place to store them.
Where can we store them?
Why are you getting irritated?
There is always a solution.
Let me think about it.
Don't think about these tobacco.
If you dare to use these to pay back the loan sharks, I'll kill you.
What are you thinking? I'm I someone like that?
I don't know.
Fine, even if you don't trust my character,
then you should at least know I'm a coward.
With someone like Gu Qingming backing your family, do I dare to cross you?
As long as you know.
Master Hu, our boss wants to talk with you.
I still have business, maybe another day.
Our boss has said, if you don't come today,
then he wouldn't be in such a good mood tomorrow.
Let's go.
